Therapy often involves noticing thoughts and feelings, tracing where patterns began, and trying small changes between sessions.

To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to availability. Simon uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, with fees varying by location and timing.

Approaches that translate to online work

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current needs and reactions; online sessions can help people notice patterns and try different ways of relating. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on being heard and understood, with the counsellor offering non-judgemental listening and support to help people find their own solutions. Jungian Therapy explores personal meaning, symbols and life themes to uncover deeper motivations and stuck patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the process and is worked out together. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, and then adapt methods as therapy progresses. This keeps the work collaborative and focused on what the client actually needs.

The original biography does not specify which online formats are used, so please confirm current session options before booking. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into busy lives by removing travel time and making it easier to take a shorter check-in during a break, use less bandwidth with audio-only contact, or choose timings that suit different time zones. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt talking-based approaches for these practical benefits, while checking in about what works best for each person.
